Kong berated MONSTER EXPRESS. If Yoshino or Tozawa weren’t in the match, they were just a bunch of weaklings. Nothing monstrous about them. The real monster is CY-BER-KONG!
T-Hawk responded that yes, if Shachi was on the team they were easy pickings. Beating him is nothing to brag about. He also doesn’t represent the true strength of MONSTER EXPRESS. Kong would know their true power sooner than later.

YAMATO addressed the fans after his win. Today is his 35th birthday. Fans sang Happy Birthday to him. He ends up not having much success in the tag league. However, he will be successful in Ota on 9/22. He’s is totally focused. He quickly changed subjects to the Triangle Gate, which changed hands in Okinawa last weekend. He thought that it would be cool if Hulk, Kzy, & Maria challenged for the titles. Maria was quick to jump at the opportunity. Kay admitted he took the fall back in their last challenge but he would get revenge here.
After that was decided, it was time to decide whether El Lindaman would join TRIBE VANGUARD or not. At Linda’s request, the fans were polled as to whether Linda proved himself during the tag league. Before doing so, YAMATO chastised him a bit. He accomplished nothing during the tag league. He didn’t show much of anything, in fact. Fans were polled. Applause was sparse. YAMATO put it at about 30%. The games were over. He wasn’t joining. Linda was flabbergasted. He begged Maria for assistance but she just slapped him. He was useless, and she hates useless men. Linda accepted the situation. It was what the fans wanted and it was what TRIBE VANGUARD seemed to want. He wouldn’t forget this. He said goodbye to TRIBE VANGUARD…..and that he hates ugly bitches like Maria…..

Eita & DK celebrated. Eita said that they are two of the smaller members of the roster. But that means nothing. This wasn’t a fluke, this wasn’t a miracle. This was they were capable of. They ran through the tag league without a loss, and beat the other undefeated team in the finals. The next logical step is to out the Twin Gate around their waist. Kid agreed. He wasn’t satisfied with just winning the tag league. They beat the current champions earlier today, in fact. But, commitments have been made already for Ota, so this would have to wait. The time would come though, and Eita would become a two crown champion.

CIMA took the microphone. He was watching the semi-final. Peter & Flamita are back. They are the new centerpiece foreigners. Eita is busy in Ota. However, himself & DK are not. He got the OK from TRIBE VANGUARD, so he wants to team up with Flamita. He asked DK to also join up. Peter was aligned with OVER GENERATION during his first tour, and will be with MONSTER EXPRESS for this one. He wants to face off with him, to experience his ability first hand. DK suggested they also add Mochizuki and make it an 8 man tag. CIMA readily assumed he would also accept.

Eita thanked the fans for today. With him steering the ship, OVER GENERATION wouldn’t stop until they had all the titles. Don’t take your eyes off of him.

As always, Doi demanded more applause for his win. A whole year has passed since he last came home to Nara. They can do better than what they gave him. He might get booed in that shithole Tokyo, but not here. This is home turf. Last year was his 15th anniversary. This year is the 10th show in Nara since the Toryumon Japan to Dragon Gate change. It would be weird to not do an 11th, so on this same day next year he will once again come home to go on a rampage.

Horiguchi said the win today meant much more to him than just two points. The Jimmyz have been together for almost 5 years. Today though, they changed in different rooms. The feeling was different today. The Twin Gate champions are the original Jimmyz, but they aren’t the only ones. Himself, Saito, & Kanda will be challenging for the Triangle Gate soon. The red hot summer isn’t finished yet. The Jimmyz aren’t finished yet.

Doi demanded more applause for their 4th straight win. They are clearly without peer in this division. He has something to say to the Twin Gate champions. He demanded they come out. Don’t run. Don’t stop. Get your asses out here. Mr. Twin Gate wants a title match. Susumu was irritated at having post match cleanup duties interrupted. Doi demanded an answer. Susumu admitted that they were on a roll. But, they haven’t won the entire league yet. Besides, they just had a title shot a month ago. THey haven’t done anything to deserve another one. Doi said he never said anything about teaming with YASSHI. YASSHI has other things on his plate. He would be teaming with someone else. That someone else is Shingo Takagi. The challenge was accepted, despite being in the middle of the tag league.

Hyou Watanabe had his debut moved up a week, to compensate for the continued absence of Futa Nakamura.
Yoshino introduced him to the fans. He noted his unusual name. Both he and Shu Watanabe have their names spelled in katakana to avoid confusion. Yoshino asked him his age and hometown. He is 19, and hails from Toyohashi City in Aichi Prefecture. At this point a single fan in the crowd shouted they were also from there. Yoshino asked if Hyou knew them, but he did not. Hyou thanked the fans for coming to see his debut. Today was the official start of his life as a wrestler, and he will fight his hardest to become great.
Yoshino was distressed at Hyou being half his age. CIMA was further dismayed at the thought that Hyou wasn’t even 1 year old when he started wrestling. Yamamura & Ishida also addressed him. They both welcomed him to their ranks. Together they will bring Dragon Gate into the future.

Horiguchi said that August is usually a busy time for the Jimmyz and this year will be no different. Himself, Saito, & Kanda wanted a Triangle Gate match and they wanted it soon.

Doi mocked the Marilyns. If this was the level of ability they were going to show, they may as well retire.

Takagi said that 20 minutes just wasn’t enough for these four. Their rivalry is endless. There will never be enough time. Furthermore, Takagi & Kong weren’t out of the hunt in the tag league yet. As for “Dream Gate Champion” YAMATO. His time was coming. Takagi would be taking the belt back sooner than later. Takagi & Kong were in the finals of the very first Summer Adventure Tag League. Their power was undeniable. Don’t forget it.
YAMATO was amused. So they were the runners up almost 10 years ago? Who cares? Who even remembers that? Takagi was right. Their feud has been endless. To this point. The time was coming soon that YAMATO would put an end to it. YAMATO finally got to finish his speech from Kobe World. What he wanted to say to the Kobe fans before he was so rudely interrupted….Wasn’t he just the coolest?

Futa Nakamura is off again today. Tozawa & Shimizu receive a forfeit win in their scheduled league match. Mochizuki will not seek a replacement partner and will continue to forfeit matches until Nakamura returns. Mochizuki wants to keep his spot for him, because of the experience that could he gained from participating in even just one league match.

Futa Nakamura possibly suffered a concussion due to the beating he received from Shingo Takagi on the afternoon show. He wanted to still fight on this card, but was pulled as a precaution. He would be re-examined to determine his status going forward. CIMA told the fans to direct their disappointment directly at Takagi. This left Over Generation at a disadvantage. Saito was OK with a handicap match, but wondered who they had to team with them. CIMA said they only had about an hour to find someone. However, he has been wrestling for 19 years. Gamma for 20. He has lived and breathed this business, so he has a lot of connections. Pizza has a delivery time of 30 minutes. For CIMA and his vast experience & connections, 90 minutes is plenty of time to find a partner. A strong partner. A legendary partner. Ikari no Jushin hit, bringing out Jushin Thunder …… Ichikawa.

YASSHI kept up the attack on Yamamura & Ishida after the match, prompting a save from Eita. Brother, Sister, whatever. Eita won’t sit and watch while he takes liberties with his friends. YASSHI was livid. Who was this scum? He needs to respect his elders. YASSHI remembers CIMA, DK. But not this dude. Eita said that YASSHI may not know him, but everyone in the building knows him very well. YASSHI had previously announced his intention to end the careers of Ishida & Yamamura by the end of the year. Well. The one who would be vanquished would be YASSHI. Eita would be the one to do it.
Was he really trying to start shit with brother YASSHI aka Gokigen-chan? Maybe they should find a way to settle who is ended this year. If he wants a fight, he should put up his title. Eita was more than willing to accept. The match was set for Dangerous Gate. Eita told the fans not to take their eyes off him, because they would miss something special.

YAMATO addressed Lindaman & Maria. YAMATO wanted to settle this nonsense. He wanted to hear straight from Maria. What was the deal with this guy? He’s a member of Over Generation, but is always with Maria. Does he want to join Tribe Vanguard? What gives? Linda revealed he was no longer with OG. He & Eita had serious problems with each other. The other members have not attempted to contact him. He has made up his mind. He wanted to join Tribe. YAMATO understood him a little better, but wasn’t ready to accept him. Instead, he told Lindaman to show his resolve in the tag league. If YAMATO is sufficiently impressed, Linda can join the unit at the end of league play.

YAMATO & Tribe Vanguard greeted the fans at the start of the show. The fan seating was very close to the ring, so he was a little shy. He talked about winning the Dream Gate back in Kobe. It is just the first step of many that will lead Dragon Gate into the future. Today was the start of the tag league. He promised himself & Hulk would make a big showing.

CIMA & Over Generation held their customary First Gong Kids segment before match 3. CIMA asked the other members what they did during their break. The Eita & Ishida trained and did promotional work. Yamamura wrestled for Osaka Pro Wrestling, at a venue that was a bike ride away from his house. Dragon Kid went to a hot spring and watched a lot of movies. Gamma had to stay home alone to care for the family dog while the rest of his family went on a trip….
YASSHI was his usual chatty self. The tag league was starting today. He & Doi, the Bosou Brothers, had a tag league on the night show. This match with the young generation scum would be a good warm up.

Gamma yelled at PT after his loss. He took a long time off. In that time, Futa Nakamura debuted and is already in the tag league. Eita won the Brave Gate. What exactly did PT do during that time? Based on his physique, Gamma had a pretty good idea. He should be ashamed of himself to be out here in this state.
Eita agreed, but was a little more diplomatic. He talked about that weirdo Lindaman and his situation with Maria. Eita needs allies like PT if he is going to be fighting battles with enemies like that. He hoped PT could get his act together.

Tozawa celebrated his win over the Dream Gate champion. Things weren’t all good though. He watched YAMATO & Takagi in Kobe. They were his generational peers but he hasn’t had the success they have. He has never been champion. That would change. 2016 was his year. He would win everything, including the Dream Gate. He wanted a title match. YAMATO accepted. Any time or any place. The match was set for Dangerous Gate in Ota City on 09/22. YAMATO reiterated that his title win was only the first step. He wasn’t planning on losing. His resolve was unwavering.
